Fatal Error

G'day. Followed all the steps and on live preview of the twentythirteen_child theme, this message was returned: (XXXXX relates to my credentials, thus substituted) Fatal error: Cannot redeclare twentythirteen_setup() (previously declared in /home17/XXXXX/public_html/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen_child/functions.php:69) in /home17/XXXXX/public_html/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/functions.php on line 108 Any input would be appreciated

Stand down everyone! For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to clone the twentythirteen theme and rename it child, then substitute the .css file over the top of the old one! All fixed now!
